"These things, are they all real?"

There was laughter and laughter in the front hall, but the silent back study was dead, and then a majestic voice sounded, and there was a bit of anger suppressed in the voice. Wearing a bright dragon robe, the Son of Heaven standing behind the desk pressed one hand on the scroll on the table, his face was very gloomy.

The young man who was sitting on the side casually raised his hand and flipped through the folds next to his hand, and replied casually: "Since the imperial brother is talking to me in this tone, then he naturally believes it, so why bother asking." After flipping through a book, the young man suddenly looked at the content on it and laughed, "Brother Huang, do you see, someone is playing me and oppressing the common people." ”

His tone was casual, lazily and somewhat casual. Brocade clothes, noble air is not disguised. However, the young man's sitting posture was very free and wanton, and there was a bit of cynicism on his face, and he didn't take the moody son of heaven to heart.

The Son of Heaven glanced at him and sneered: "If you are willing to take over this throne, what if I depose the crown prince?" ”

"Brother Huang, don't talk and laugh, I'm not interested."

The young man is Xiao Wang Shen Huai.

He casually threw the fold to the Son of Heaven, raised his eyes and replied with a smile: "Instead of thinking of ways to stuff that position to me all day long, why don't you have a good life and cultivate a few nephews." I see that the prince is very ambitious, very compatible—"

"I thought he was the most indisputable, but I underestimated him." The Son of Heaven interrupted Shen Huai's words in a cold voice, and when his eyes fell on the scroll in front of him, he felt angry, and he couldn't help but slap the table heavily, "There is such an action behind the scenes, and there is no mercy at all." ”

There was a bit of disappointment in his tone.

Shen Huai picked his lips and smiled lazily, but did not answer. The Son of Heaven's gaze was gloomy and uncertain, and he slowly spoke after a while, very indifferently: "Ahuai, do it appropriately." Don't use the brocade guard, use the group of people under your hands to check all the people in the palace. There are officials involved......" He paused and said coldly, "If you don't need to, you will be killed." ”

Shen Huai raised his eyebrows and smiled lightly: "Yes, Imperial Brother." ”

The Son of Heaven breathed a sigh of relief and spread out a new volume. The two discussed the list of officials in a slow voice, preparing to start a quiet inventory. The men in the front hall were still talking to each other, unaware that a storm was coming.

Gu Xuan received a handwritten letter from the prince a moment later, which contained a secret word that only the two of them knew, and asked him to go to the imperial garden to meet him immediately. After destroying the letter, Gu Xuan quietly turned the path to the agreed place under the pretext of going to the toilet.

A stone was thrown down the back mountain, and the ripples immediately waved. Gu Xuan looked up, and sure enough, in the darkness, a figure leaned against the rockery and did not move, as if waiting for someone. Gu Xuan looked around again, and only after making sure that there was no one did he take steps and walk over there. He lowered his voice and said in a low voice, "Your Highness, what's wrong?" ”

However, as soon as he approached, a pungent smell rushed into his nose, and he coughed lightly, and couldn't help but take two steps back. The heart is not good, and the mind realizes that something is wrong, but it is too late.

Gu Xuan staggered a few steps, his whole body limp and weak.

He closed his eyes and lay unconscious on the ground.

A girl dressed in purple yarn came out of the shadows, blew out the incense in her hand, wrapped it in a small handkerchief, and hid it in her sleeve. took out a pack of incense powder from his sleeve, Gu Mingxiu sprinkled the incense powder into the air, and after eliminating the previous fragrance, he lowered his eyes and looked at the person on the ground lightly.

Her calligraphy in the past was too delicate, and she was once teased by Shen Yang that she lacked strength and was not atmospheric enough. At that time, she was arrogant, so she took his usual calligraphy and began to copy, and after hard work, she counted all his handwriting, which could be completely fake, even Shen Yang himself couldn't tell the difference.

And Shen Yang's secret words to Gu Xuan were told to her by Shen Yang after she was in distress, so that she could use this to report to Gu Xuan in order to relieve Shen Yang from the crisis.

Gu Mingxiu bent her lips, bent down to break Gu Xuan's mouth, and fed him a red pill. She forced Gu Xuan to swallow the pill, and quietly watched Gu Xuan's face gradually turn into flush, and her tone became cold: "Big brother, this is my gift to you, that is, to be a good husband and wife with your wife in your previous life." ”

Then, let's walk the Yellow Springs Road together. In the next life, remember to be a good person, don't follow the wrong master like this. ”

She brushed off her dress, got up and walked briskly towards the path to the other, and the figure quickly disappeared into the path. Not long after, the man lying on the ground unconsciously opened his eyes, the bottom of his eyes was crimson, and the color of lust could not be hidden. He frantically ripped open the collar of his shirt, and touched a smooth and soft spot with his hand on the side.

Like a woman's bare shoulders.

When Gu Qingyue went back, she was just followed by a little maid. She whispered her thanks to the little maid and walked towards the front alone, without attracting anyone's attention. Dong Zhiyue, who was always paying attention to the door, saw it, so she smiled smugly, and pulled Gu Changge over to stop Gu Qingyue: "Why are you alone?" What about your sisters? ”

Xu was suddenly stopped, Gu Qingyue was startled, and took two steps back timidly.

She stared at the crowd in front of her with wide eyes and whispered, "I... I do not know. I followed the fourth sister and the sister of the Liu family out, and as I walked, the sister of the Liu family asked the little maid to come back and report safety to Mrs. Liu. Later....I went to the latrine, and when I came out, I couldn't see the two of them, so I had to ask the little maid I met to bring me back. ”

She glanced around timidly and asked in a low voice, "Hasn't the fourth sister come back yet?" ”

Dong Zhiyue was proud in her heart, thinking that it was the young lady of the Liu family who took Gu Mingxiu to another place to tease her, and she couldn't help but feel a little happy on her face, but she didn't pay attention to Gu Qingyue anymore: "Your sister went out with you, I don't know why she hasn't come back yet." Xu is too big in the palace, and it is not impossible to get lost. ”

She held Gu Changge's hand affectionately, and beckoned others to walk to the side: "We haven't finished talking yet, don't let others disturb our interest, let's go." As if she was afraid that Gu Changge would refuse, Dong Zhiyue said with a smile, "I heard my mother say that the queen mother wants to invite us to enjoy the flowers tonight. ”

As soon as she finished speaking, she saw a grandmother come out with a smile and ordered, "The queen invites you to go to the imperial garden." ”

An Li frowned slightly, pulled Gu Liyi on his side, and asked, "What about your sister?" ”

Although Gu Liyi had been paying attention to Gu Mingxiu's movements and had also seen them go out together, Gu Mingxiu did not come back. However, without Gu Mingxiu's orders, she didn't dare to follow rashly, and subconsciously set her eyes on Shen Qingqing at this moment.

Shen Qingqing was following Mrs. Shen to prepare to go out, and inadvertently met Gu Liyi's gaze. As if he understood the other party's inquiry, Shen Qingqing shook his head, then drew a smile arc and nodded slightly, and accompanied Mrs. Shen out of the house.

"Mother, let's go, Sister Xiu is fine." After getting the other party's assurance, Gu Liyi subconsciously felt a little relieved. When she saw Gu Qingyue walking over silently with a timid and uneasy face, she frowned slightly, and her mouth was still there, "Where is Xu waiting for us, let's go to the Imperial Garden together." ”

An Li nodded.

The group arrived at the Imperial Garden, and sure enough, they saw palace lights all around. The servants and eunuchs stood quietly on the side, and everyone stood on the side, whispering.

"Mother." Just as Shen Qingqing was looking around for Gu Mingxiu's figure, a soft voice sounded not far away.

The purple yarn girl slowly approached the crowd, walked to An Li's side with a smile, and explained softly: "I just walked casually with the young lady of Liu Shilang's family, but I accidentally got lost. They also wanted to wait here for a while, and then wait for me to go back to the main hall when someone passed by, but they said that you would come in a while, so they brought me here to wait for you. ”

After explaining, she raised her eyes and nodded in one direction.

Sure enough, there was a little maid standing opposite, and when she saw this, she smiled back and saluted, and then slowly retreated. An Li nodded, just touched the top of her hair and asked softly. Dong Zhiyue and the others were on the side, and it was difficult to say anything in front of so many ladies.

After all, Gu Mingxiu didn't know the road, but Miss Liu did. If you ask Gu Mingxiu where Miss Liu's family went, she is a little embarrassed by Gu Mingxiu.

Shen Qingqing didn't know what she understood, and when she looked at Gu Mingxiu, the other party gave her a look, and with determination and coldness in her eyes, she turned her gaze slightly. Shen Qingqing's heart was stable, so he relaxed, turned his eyes away at will, and looked to the side.

The Son of Heaven and the Queen soon appeared in the Imperial Garden surrounded by everyone, and Shen Huai, the king of Xiao, followed the Son of Heaven carelessly, his eyes still with a cold and naughty smile. The crown prince and the others followed, all of them looking gentle and elegant.

"I recently got a new pot of flowers, and it's very interesting." The queen smiled in the imperial garden, her face was gentle, and her face was kind, "The flower opens at night, and when it opens, there is a faint night light, and the fragrance of the flowers is also very strong." So I want to—"

Before the queen finished her words, there were several sounds behind the rockery not far behind her, accompanied by the woman's low cry, which was very eye-catching.

There was silence in the imperial garden for a while, and the Son of Heaven had already sunk his gaze: "Who is presumptuous here?!" ”

Xiao Wang Shen Huai's eyes were slightly cursed, his gaze wandered on Gu Mingxiu for a few seconds, and he said lightly: "Take it." ”

Someone responded and rushed to the back of the rockery. In less than a moment, two people in disarrayed clothes were escorted to the crown prince in unison, not daring to raise their heads, their expressions stiff.

There was a moment of silence in the crowd before someone exclaimed.

"Isn't that Miss Liu?!"

"Big brother?!"

The latter was Gu Changge, who couldn't hide his surprise, and his expression was shocked.

Reading is exciting, reading is wonderful!
